He moved to Coolidge, Arizona in 2008, and he served time in prison for aggravated harassment, and he was convicted for violating a court order in 2009. Aldosary became a radical Islamist, and he researched RDX and other "terrorist explosives" on his computer while planning an attack on the US government. On 29 November 2012, he planted a bomb at the back door of a Social Security building in Casa Grande, Arizona, but the bomb failed to penetrate the building or injure anyone.
